Fun Southern Sun Writer

Joshilyn Jackson says, "I read everything from contemporary lit-fic to hard boiled detective books to sci fi to classic literature to chick-lit to epic fantasy to cosies... I’m the walking definition of avid. And of course I love great Southern literature---I think Flannery O’Connor, Eudora Welty, and Harper Lee are about perfect."

    What a great quote. I have Gods in Alabama sitting somewhere in the stacks. Still deciding on my reads for the Summer challenge but I may have to add her book.

    She is funny, Lynne. I was going to link to it, but must have dropped the link. Thanks so much for the address. :)
